Late goals from Patrick Vieira and Zinedine Zidane booked France a quarter-final tie with Brazil as they came from behind to beat Spain 3-1 in Hanover on Tuesday, 27 June 2006.
A 28th minute penalty from David Villa had given Luis Aragones’ side the lead, but Frank Ribery’s equaliser four minutes before half-time restored parity for Les Blues.
The match:
23’: France were enjoying a good deal of possession and they almost went in front following a fine move. Zidane found Henry whose devastating cross across the six-yard box proved too good for defenders as well as the lunging Frank Ribery and Patrick Vieira. 41’: It seemed to settle Aragones’ side but France hit back in superb fashion. Ribery picked up the ball just inside the Spanish half and played a one-two with Vieira before rounding Casillas and slipping the ball home. 60’: Ribery and substitute Joaquin sent in teasing crosses that caused panic in respective defences but generally chances were now few and far between. 81’: At the other end, substitute Sidney Govou shot over from 20 yards after more good work from Ribery.
